Arya Patel '23 Recruiting Profile

My name is Arya Patel and I am a senior from Manhattan, New York currently attending the High School for Math, Science, and Engineering. I played at Soccer Stars United for nine years and currently play for my club team French Football Academy and my high school’s varsity team. Coming in as a freshman, our varsity team was placed in the Manhattan A division, and since then we have competed at that level consistently, making the city playoffs every year. My senior year, we went undefeated with a 10-0 record and won the city championship through five playoff games. As for club soccer, I was selected to play an age group up with Stars United Galaxy ‘04 and join them in playing in the US Club Soccer National championship (2018), and the USYS National championship (2019). We traveled to both Colorado and Kansas respectively to play in each tournament, and won it all in 2018. Playing with a team at that caliber at a national level developed my skill set greatly, and I still carry them with me now.
